Hey Biff, i've got it working now. the first formula below is the one that
works... i removed the row reference numbers in the first reference to the
array...

"=INDEX('Cancel Push compiled'!$A:$W,SMALL(IF('Cancel Push
compiled'!$A$2:$A$82=Sheet1!$A$2,ROW('Cancel Push
compiled'!$A$2:$A$82)),ROW(1:1)),11)"


This is the formula with the row references... i can't understand why this
one doesn't work....

"=INDEX('Cancel Push compiled'!$A2:$W82,SMALL(IF('Cancel Push
compiled'!$A$2:$A$82=Sheet1!$A$2,ROW('Cancel Push
compiled'!$A$2:$A$82)),ROW(1:1)),11)"

Thank you so much!!

Hi!

this formula works if the sheet is sorted by the value i'm looking up and
if
there are no duplicates in the field I want returned.


The sheet does not need to be sorted and it doesn't matter if there are dupe
return values.

Post the *EXACT* formula that you tried.

I then want to include this
in a weekly dashboard for the 50+ managers i'm monitoring.
have you got anything else?


Pivot table or filter

this formula works if the sheet is sorted by the value i'm looking up and
if
there are no duplicates in the field I want returned. Otherwise i get
either
incorrect values returned or errors..

basically, i have a sheet listing jobs scheduled by managers. I want to
be
able to look up the manager's name and return a list of all the job's
scheduled and the dates they were scheduled on. I then want to include
this
in a weekly dashboard for the 50+ managers i'm monitoring.

Thanks for the response, but have you got anything else?

Hi!

The basic formula is something like this:

Entered as an array using the key combo of CTRL,SHIFT,ENTER:

=INDEX(B$1:B$10,SMALL(IF(A$1:A$10=lookup_value,ROW ($1:$10)),ROW(1:1)))

Then copy down.

Where column A contains the lookup_value and column B contains the values
to
be returned.

Need more specific details to offer a more robust suggestion.

i want to look up a name that occurs several times in one column of a
spreadsheet and return corresponding values from each row the name
occurs
on.
Vlookup returns only one value. How can I get multiple values?
